Hi Ciao,
Thanks for your information, I found my problem is very similar to
yours. Yes, I have chipset 855, it is proved from the kernel log and
user manual of my machine. I have tried with 2.6.30 kernel , gdm
_failed_ , when it jumped back to tty, I could see these section from
the Xorg.log(II) Synaptics touchpad driver version 1.2.2 AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint no synaptics event device found (**) Option "Device" "/dev/input/mouse1" Query no Synaptics: 6003C8 (--) AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint: no supported touchpad found (EE) AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint Unable to query/initialize Synaptics hardware. (EE) PreInit failed for input device "AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint" I thought the touchpad would be the problem. However, I remember the version before my upgrade when the system still works was 2.6.32-20, so I used the deb in your post and downgrade to 2.6.32-20, X starts working again ! I put here the Xorg.log , apparently, there are also error message about touch pad, I don't know what is wrong here. I think there has been some changes between 20 and 21 failed the gdm. I attached the Xorg.log here with 2.6.32.20 that works with my computer.
